Lesson 1: Making Equal Groups
Last week we put objects into groups to help us count them. This week we are sharing our objects out equally.. This means every group needs to be the same. I have been sorting my socks into groups. Click on the picture to watch my video. What different sized groups did I use?
Sharing Equally
I decided to have a teddy bear’s picnic. Click on the picture to watch how I shared the food out. Can you do the same at home? You could share food, toys, books, pencils…..anything! Draw some pictures of your sharing and remember to say how many groups you have and how many are in each group. p34 and 35 in your maths home book practices this.
Lesson 2: Finding half
Today we are cutting or sharing objects in half. This means we cut them into 2 pieces – but both piece have to be the same.
p36 and 37 of your home maths book looks at halves too.
